Tom Cruise is reportedly happier than he has been in years. The Top Gun star has taken on a new role and is having a great time with it. The actor has been spending a lot of time with his Mission Impossible co-star Hayley Atwell‘s young daughter.
Cruise’s new bond with Atwell’s baby girl is more than just a friendly bond. It is rumored that Tom is also the baby’s new Godfather. Radar Online reports that sources close to Tom reveal that he spends all his free time with the little girl and loves taking care of her.
“Tom was tickled pink – no pun intended – to spend time with Haley’s little girl. She’s the spitting image of (Cruise’s daughter) Suri when she was the same age,” the insider reveals. While he is completely smitten with the baby, his fans can’t help but think about his estranged daughter, Suri Cruise.
Despite Tom paying for Suri’s college tuition, it has been more than 12 years since Suri Cruise and her father have spent any time together. It comes as no surprise that Tom is paying for Suri’s education; the details behind the estrangement have always been a topic of interest for their followers.
Tom Cruise’s Godfather Role Gives Him A Second Chance At Fatherhood
Tom loves the idea of marriage and family. However, he has not had the best luck when it comes to romance and raising children. Tom is already a father to three: Isabella and Connor, who are now 32 and 30, and Suri, 18. However, his relationships with his adult children are not the best, especially with Suri.
Suri Cruise doesn’t seem to mind her non-existent relationship with her dad or step-siblings. As previously reported, Suri allegedly could care less about her estranged family members. And to her, they do not exist. Rumors claim that, as far as she is concerned, she has all the family she needs in her mom, Katie Holmes.
Tom Cruise has high hopes of one day reuniting with his youngest daughter. But that may not happen for many years, if ever. For now, he is allegedly more than content, spending as much time as possible with Hayley’s daughter.
Reports claim that Tom thinks the baby resembles Suri at that age, and it warms his heart to have this chance to be a part of her life. “Tom has become part of their extended family,” the insider said. “He’s the most doting godfather that a child could wish for.”
Tom Cruise is ecstatic with his new role. However, his followers and Suri Cruise supporters have a few thoughts on the subject. “But he is absent from his biological daughter. Please. He is very odd,” claims one fan.
“Too bad he wouldn’t do the same for his child,” adds another. “Dude can nail every role except the one of father. Suri is better off without him,” one more writes.
Suri may not have Tom Cruise in her life. However, she is happy and content. She started a new chapter of her life last fall at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, where she is studying art and design.
Even though she has decided to keep her distance from Tom Cruise, she is more than content with her life. She knows that when it comes down to it, she can always count on her mother’s unwavering support, and that is all that matters to her.
